1 tsp cinnamon
Pinch of salt
½ cup Purely Elizabeth Original Ancient Grain Granola, crushed
1 tbsp oat flour

DIRECTIONS
1. Spray a 9 x13 baking pan with cookie spray or coconut oil and layer the bread pieces across the pan.
2. Whisk together the eggs, almond milk, vanilla extract, maple syrup, cinnamon and salt and pour mixture over the bread, ensuring all of the liquid is making it’s way in the crevices of the bread so it is fully coated. Cover and chill for at least 1 hour up to overnight.
3. Once bread mixture is chilled, remove from refrigerator. Preheat oven to 375°F.
4. Mix together the granola, oat flour and coconut oil. Sprinkle granola over the bread followed by the fresh blackberries.
